>>685196490

I got my lower wisdom teeth pulled out one week ago today. I pretty much immediately started drinking beers after and within in a day or two smoked cigarettes. This week I think I have a minor case of dry socket. I saw also getting food in there and started irrigating with a plastic syringe. Finally I decided to remedy it by packing the sockets with orajel. I don't care about the numbing so much because just covering over the holes is enough to alleviate the pain.

Is this good enough and safe to get me through until they heal up some more or do I really need to go back to the dentist?

Is it worth getting your teeth bleached?

Will this require surgical extraction, or just regular? Getting it pulled in a couple of days, don't know what to expect.

>>685199163

Those are some pretty serious holes. It's going to take a long time to heal. You say to go back to the dentist but what is their remedy likely going to be? There's big fucking holes in my mouth and the nerves are exposed until some skin covers over. Before I go spending another couple hundred dollars I'd like to have some idea what I'm getting for it.

what happens if you don't pull out your wisdom teeth?

why do my teeth?

proof faggot

>>685201024
First upper baby molar tooth is molarform meaning it looks like the permanent molar by characteristics. Its not that important for the job but i thought i'd just shake you up a bit lol

>>685201024

>cut open gums, clean out, pack it

Sounds like exactly what I'm already doing except for the cutting part. I've been cleaning with syringe and protecting with a dab of orajel over the hole, seems to have been working great the last 2 days. What am I missing here? Seems is just a waiting game until the sockets fill in some more.

my wisdom teeth are all coming in straight with no pain. why do dentist keep telling me I should have them (or atleast the bottom 2) removed

One of my molar is chipped off, my dentist said I should have a root canal and have a crown put in. I agreed and had a predetermination from my insurance, turns out I still need to pay $700. Told him fuck that just pull out the tooth, suddenly they were able to convince my insurance to partially cover the crown and the cost is down to $300. Should I still go for it or should I just have it extracted?

My gums ALWAYS bleed when I brush my teeth and they're also receeding, what can I do to help? I brush with colgate and use Listerine Gigivitis treatment for it as well but I used to have an energy drink almost every day

I've got bad calculus on my two front bottom teeth. Wat do

>>685201644

They're a bitch to keep clean. Technically you can keep them but they may get deteriorated over the years then need to come out anyway. They can also ache when you get a sinus infection, even if they've come in well and have room.

have you ever replaced a whole tooth before from being knocked out? I was a patient that got punched in the face, they gave me the temporary braces

some people dont need them pulled. usually the mouth will not occupy the additional teeth. when they come in, they can push the others. see your dentist to see if you need them pulled.

>>685201576
up to you anon. if it gets infected you're gonna be in pain.
>>685201644
even if they come in strait, there might physically not be enough room in your mouth for them. trust your dentist.
>>685201653
call your insurance to verify the cost. if it is really $300 go for it. insurance doesnt really waive fees though. sounds kinda off.

I'm not OP but here's the deal with wisdom teeth. If you didnt grow them out until age 21 they will most probably not grow however there is a risk that they will couse trouble in the jaw because they are not out. Trouble in the jaw as meaning pushing other teeth from the inside, damaging jaw integrity etc. I wouldnt recommend surgery to pull them out unless they are cousing you trouble and pain.
>>685201978
Bleeding gums is cured by brushing more, keep brushing your teeth even more when your gums bleed and it will stop.

most likely not. at this point if there is no infection or pain id say you're in the clear. like i said before, not everyone needs them out. my mother is 68 and still has hers.

>>685203226
Yes wisdom teeth can couse problems no matter what age however you should not worry about it unless its cousing you problems.

>>685203226
Probably, the wisdom teeth are the hardest in the body, like diamonds, so watch out they can sneak up on your other teeth.

My middle molar on upper left side has a hole that's angled in a way that it seems like it's cut in the corner, idk what that makes sense. I went to the doctor and he put some shit it in and made it back into a "whole" tooth a year ago. But recently that shit deteriorated and now it's back again, there seems to be some blood vessel that I keep braking and it ends up bleeding, aka my breath smells like ass in seconds, this sometimes happens when I brush my teeth. What do?

Btw, is it true that some fruits/foods can help you straighten out your teeth? My mom always kept telling me that if I eat a apple a day, my teeth won't be as fucked if I didn't.

>>685203957
They are good if the root of the tooth is exposed. If not, purely cosmetic.

OP serious question here, a long time ago around 13 years ish the dentist said there were teeth growing out and I decided to leave them there, I think they are still in there but jammed deformed growth? ( my gums are bigger on the tooth that were supposed to grow) fast forward 13 years can it possibly cause any neurological symptoms? i think it might be because of this I have some nasal symptoms or it might be the fac tthat I smoked a lot of weed in my earlier years
